Dominique Laveau: Voodoo Child is the story of a half-breed, outcast and heir to the Voodoo Queenship of New Orleans, if she can live long enough to claim her birthright.

Another horror-tinged debut is the Richard Corben-illustrated horror tale Ragemoor — "A living castle, nurtured on pagan blood, harborer to deadly monsters!"

In this series, a stage magician must make his way through "a world where magic-not technology-rules, and forced to use trickery and illusions to survive."
